Hi all. I’m looking for a book/resource to help me with particles. Whatever i seem to write I managed to get the particles wrong so I need a bit of a run down. Any reading material is appreciated.
but as a general rule, look up usage of words as you learn them. dictionary definition is not enough. many many words have more than one target of some sort, and often use different combinations of particles and conjunctions to address what their operating on. there are patterns, and any decent grammar dictionary, online or in a book, will give a wide range of basic possibilities. but ultimately you need usage sentences

All About Particles by Naoko Chino is my favourite guide on particles. It is a fast and easy read IMHO.
